  • SUGGESTIONS for POSSIBLE SHORT TRIPS to Get An
    SUGGESTIONS FOR POSSIBLE SHORT TRIPS To get an introduction about the area near the conference: Why You Really Should Visit Italy's Outstanding Barolo Wine Region https://www.forbes.com/sites/catherinesabino/2018/10/28/why-you-really-should-visit-italys- outstanding-barolo-wine-region/#7bd3de632f89 Note that the Langa district is best visited by car. Because of its territory, the district is not accessible by train (except for Alba, which is connected to the railway system). However, driving in the Langa district should not be a problem since it is in the countryside and not in a big city. For reference, Bra and Alba have ~30,000 people each. Some of the villages referenced below are much smaller: Pollenzo (a subdivision of Bra) and Barolo have only ~700 people. Furthermore, besides the picturesque hills and the historic castles and buildings, this area is also about food and wine. So you can pair some of the suggestions below with the restaurant suggestions also available on the conference website. There are also several wine tours that are normally organized in the area and, besides the suggestions below, you can just search online for what suits your interest. 1) Tour of the Barolo Langa district: Barolo, La Morra, and Verduno Note: Requires a car. Also, distances are short and so one can break these itineraries into smaller ones as desired. Barolo (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barolo,_Piedmont) is the town in the middle of the vineyards of nebbiolo grapes that produce the famous wine of the same name. It is a medieval village developed at the foot of the castle.

  • The Thrill of Cinema Lives at the Mole Antonelliana
    THE THRILL OF CINEMA LIVES AT THE MOLE ANTONELLIANA Unique in Italy and among the most important worldwide, the NATIONAL MUSEUM OF CINEMA is hosted within the Mole Antonelliana in Turin, the symbol of the city. Inaugurated in July 2000, it has become one of the most visited museums in Italy, garnering much acclaim at an international level; a remarkable goal for a very particular museum, which proposes to charm its visitors by drawing them into the enchanting world of the Seventh Art. What really makes the National Museum of Cinema unique is the invaluable asset of its collections and the peculiarity of its layout, developed spiral-wise upwards and structured over several display levels, illustrating the history of cinema by alternating spectacular and evocative posters, objects, film fragments and set-staging, covering an overall surface of about 3,200 square metres. In planning the museum layout, François Confino did not only take into account the characteristics of the building housing it, but, as he followed Antonelli’s crescendo, he overlaid different levels of perception, combining the need for rigorous scientific foundations with the need for a spectacular presentation which aimed to reproduce and play with those fascination mechanisms at the basis of cinematographic depiction. The Museum preserves a considerable fund of rare and precious material, holding over 1,800,000 items, in many cases one-off pieces worldwide: its collections number 950,000 photographs, 530,000 posters and advertising material, 8,900 gadgets and film memorabilia, 8,950 devices and 10,850 artistic artefacts, 37,000 silent and sound films, 42,000 volumes, 138,000 brochures and magazines, 250,000 press clippings, 1,350 musical scores, 15,000 archive files, 37,700 titles in its video library and 4,800 film audio recordings.

    MUSEOLOGY AND EGYPTIAN MATERIAL CULTURE MUSEO EGIZIO, TURIN (ITALY) Course ID: ARCH 365AD June 23 ‒ July 29, 2018 FIELD SCHOOL DIRECTOR: Dr. Hans Barnard, MD PhD, Cotsen Institute of Archaeology at UCLA ([email protected]) INTRODUCTION The collection of ancient Egyptian artifacts kept in the Museo Egizio in Turin (Piedmont, Italy) is among the most important in the world. In 1824, King Charles Felix (1765‒1831) of the House of Savoy—that was ruling Savoy, Piedmont, Aosta and Sardinia from Turin at the time—acquired the collection accumulated by Bernardino Drovetti (1776‒1852), the French consul to Egypt. Once in Turin it was housed in a large building in the center of town where it resides until today. The collection was expanded with the purchase of more than 1200 objects gathered by Giuseppe Sossio, in 1833, and the more than 35,000 objects excavated and purchased by Ernesto Schiaparelli (1856‒1928) between 1900 and 1920. In the 1960s, the Nubian Temple of Ellesiya was presented by the Egyptian to the Italian government—to recognize their assistance during the UNESCO campaign to save the Nubian monuments—and rebuilt in the Museo Egizio. Next to this temple, important constituents of the collection include the Old Kingdom Tomb of the Unknown, the New Kingdom Tomb of Kha and Merit, several complete copies of the Book of the Dead, the Turin List of Kings, and the Turin Papyrus Map. The Fondazione Museo delle Antichità Egizie was established in 2004 as the result of an innovative configuration blending private and public funding, which is an experiment in museum management in Italy.
